Majority of Eastern Germans Feel Life Better under Communism

Interesting reality. Being interested in what other people think and believe. I'm not surprised. A one size fits all never really works or satisfies everybody.

Homesick for a DictatorshipMajority of Eastern Germans Feel Life Better under Communism​

Glorification of the German Democratic Republic is on the rise two decades after the Berlin Wall fell. Young people and the better off are among those rebuffing criticism of East Germany as an "illegitimate state." In a new poll, more than half of former eastern Germans defend the GDR.

Wow! I'm actually a bit surprised.

More than a third of over 40s believes their lives were better under communism, study shows​

 

[SaxonJackson]

Yeah. Communism is awesome dude:

Wouldn't the poll be more accurate if they asked all Germans, not just those who were previously living under Communism in East Germany?

I've visited Germany once, right after the wall feel but only saw the West.

If there's just one thing certain about humans.......

They have a remarkable propensity to forget the past, and repeat the exact same dreaded and horrible mistakes time and time again.

How do I change my forum name to basic Alien unit, cause these are NOT "my people".

They remember what was good, and there were a lot of good things back those days.

Okay. Let us reduce the average life expectation 20 years again under "Eastern Germans" - whoever this could be under the today living Saxons, Thuringians, "Prussians" (=Märker), Pommeranians and others.

What the over 40 years old "commies" forgot: When someone retired, there was another “health care” for pensioners so that these unproductive minds didn't stay alive for too long.

From the "Hitlerjugend" directly into the "Freie Deutsche Jugend" (From "Hitler Youth" (far right extremism) directly into "Free German Youth" (far-left extremism)). The word "free" got a totally new dimension in such organisations - a brainwashed 0-dimension.

Oh by the way: What is the free dimension of the thoughts in your brain, slave of Putin?

Rear-end ride on tram line 58 in East Berlin, GDR. On Monday, January 8, 1990.

From Falkenberg via Hansa Strasse, Berliner Allee, Greifswalderstrasse, Mollstrasse, Torstrasse, Alte- and Neue Schönhauser Strasse.

The route roughly corresponds to today's M4 line.

Today there is no longer a regular line operation in Alte- and Neue Schönhauser Str. At Antonplatz there were still 3 tracks, and in Moll- and Torstr. even up to 5 tracks!

The GDR still existed under Modrow. During this period of change and transition, it was not yet as easy to enter the GDR as it was for GDR citizens to enter the West. The 25 DM exchange requirement had only just been lifted on 24.12.89, i.e. 14 days before this trip!

Here line M4, January 6th 2025:

It's also interesting that people living under Communism are routinely fleeing their native countries in an effort to sneak into free countries but nobody from a free country is sneaking into Communist countries. I wonder why that is?

Problem is, if they went back to Communism, they'd want Capitalism.

Such is the way people think.

Stop being silly .
It is the very essence of Mind Control .

See Chapter one of " Mind Control simplified for Americans "

East Germans are considered odd even in Germany. Its the hinterland of the nazi AFD.

"Nobody" is not totally correct. There are plenty of guys, who want to live in Russia. But Russia have strict anti-migrant laws. If you are not Natalia Oreiro or Steven Seagul (or a Russian-speaking ex-soviet) - you are not welcomed here.

Yeah. Communism is awesome dude:

Failure to address the OP

One more failure...

.

Why would they (not moi), ask people who did not live under communism if living under communism is good or bad, was better or worse?
